A photograph of a seated man on a stage, smiling, wearing a striped red and gold turban with a gold ornament and a red tilak on his forehead. He wears a rust-orange silk shawl edged with gold, a long gold bead necklace of large gold spheres, gold earrings, and beaded bracelets on his upper arm and wrist. Behind him is an ornate gold throne with carved scrollwork and a red velvet cushion. Swamiji (probable): the saffron-toned attire, turban, gold necklace and enthroned seating on a ceremonial stage match the appearance cues of the Nithyananda Paramashivam, so the figure is labelled as a probable identification rather than a confirmed one.
